Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Distinguish literal and metaphorical uses of the same phrasal verb, such as 'come by' meaning to visit versus to obtain something hard to get

  • Select the correct form of a 'come' phrasal verb to complete a sentence in context

  • Use a 'come' phrasal verb correctly in a spoken or written response to a personal conversation question

Teaching tips

  • Introduce the reference pages before the exercises, since Exercises 1 through 3 draw directly on the meanings and examples listed there

  • Use the answer sheet to self-check or peer-check Exercises 1 through 3 before moving to the open conversation questions

  • Assign Exercise 4's conversation questions as a speaking activity or pair discussion once the written exercises are complete

Skills covered

  • Phrasal verb recognition — students identify the correct 'come' phrasal verb form to complete a sentence from a word bank in Exercise 1.

  • Meaning discrimination — students choose between near-identical phrasal verbs, such as 'come out' versus 'coming in,' in Exercise 2's multiple-choice items.

  • Contextual matching — students pair a phrasal verb such as 'come down on' or 'come up against' to the sentence context it fits in Exercise 3.

Good to know

Questions teachers ask about this resource

Does the same phrasal verb appear with more than one meaning?

Yes — several verbs such as 'come by' and 'come along' are given both a literal sense (to visit, to travel with someone) and a metaphorical sense (to obtain something hard to get, to make progress), each with its own example sentence.

Is there a speaking component, not just written exercises?

Yes — Exercise 4 provides ten open conversation questions, such as asking when a student last came up with a good plan, for spoken or written personal response.
